A student is investigating the affect of different salts on melting points. Four patches of ice of equal size are roped off and

a different
type of salt is poured on each one receives table salt (NaCl), one receives Calcium Chloride (CaCl2), one receives Potassium
Carbonate (KCO3) and the fourth receives Inert sand instead. Each patch receives an equal amount of salt or sand. The student
measures the volume of ice remaining and subtracts it from the original volume of ice to see how much melted away. What is the
dependent variable?
•
A. The type of salt applied to the ice.
B. The amount of lee that melted.
C. The ice that received sand.
D. The size of the Ice patches

Answer:

B. The amount of lee that melted.

Explanation:

The dependent variable is more of what results from an action during an experiment. It is actually what is being tested for. In the experiment, the scientist seeks to understand the effect of salts on melting point of ice. He selects the different salts which can cause a ice to melt (independent variables) then he sets up to find out the effect of the salt on the ice.

He cannot control how much ice will melt. The properties of the salts would determine the extent and rate of the dissolution of the ice pack. This is the dependent variable which relies on the nature of the salt.

How society controls science
aksik [14]

Answer:

Social control is a concept within the disciplines of the social sciences. Social control is described as a certain set of rules and standards in society that keep individuals bound to conventional standards as well as to the use of formalized mechanisms. The Disciplinary model was the forerunner to the control model.

This is a standard table of the genetic code. A cell’s protein are made in response to the genetic code contained in the cell’s
galben [10]

DNA in prokaryotes frees in the cytoplasm, while in eukaryotes (like humans) DNA is in the nucleus.

Human DNA is found in the cells that make up your tissues and organs: nerve cells, liver cells (liver), skin cells ... They are extremely numerous, more than 50 000 billion and have very diversified functions! Most of our cells are microscopic (20 to 30 micrometers) and contain an even smaller nucleus structure.

Each nucleus contains the genetic material of the cell, the chromosomes.

Mitochondrial DNA can also be found in mitochondria, but mitochondria are much smaller than nuclear DNA.

<span>The trick here is to understand the definition of each of the cellular transport or function mechanisms listed. These are some interesting (and strange) analogies!

Facilitated Diffusion
This is when a mechanism assists in diffusing (spreading) some material into an environment. The dog on the wagon going through a spring loaded door would shoot it out into the environment. This is an odd analogy but Point 3 would be the one.

Active Transport 
Is when energy is expended to transport molecules somewhere against a concentration gradient or some other barrier. Examples include transporting molecules across a cell wall. The best analogy is the dog being dragged into a bathtub (Point 1).

Phagocytosis 
This is when a larger cell consumes a molecule often like eating. This matches to point 2 - the child eating the doughnut.

Passive Diffusion
Is when a concentration of molecules naturally diffuse into an environment. This suits point 5 - the crowded room full of people.

Pinocytosis
Is the budding of cell membranes to consume liquid in the surrounding environment. I guess a woman drinking tea is the closest analogy listed (Point 4).</span>
